Firm Culture is Legal Marketing Priority
The culture inside your firm affects pretty much everything that happens outside it.
That’s why it’s smart to invest in strategies for building a strong, healthy culture in your firm.
“Culture 2022: Success from the Inside Out” is the theme of this Fall’s annual meeting of the Legal Marketing Association / Southeast Region.
“This year's educational programs, interactive workshops, and insightful discussions," according to the LMASE website. “They will show you how the culture of an organization impacts its ultimate success. You'll also learn how you can create culture from where you sit and build success for yourself, your teams, and your organizations ... all from the inside out.”
